Tesla is considering setting up a lithium refinery on the gulf coast of Texas, as it looks to secure the supply.

Switching to refining lithium batteries, not only we would reduce all CO2 expelled from the cars on our roads, but ...

we would also significantly reduce the usage of petrol refineries, and consequently their CO2 emissions.
